Hi JT,

The logic goes with a weaker dollar exports become more expensive.

However in a market with LARGE excess capacity - I don't see where pricing is afforded to anybody.

Best example is Micron.You don't hear about the strong dollar helping Hynex make a profit.Their (Micron's) efficient manufacturing took Hynex to bankruptcy.In 98 the Asian Contagion taught foreign governments that subsidy is an expensive road to go down for "employment's sake".With a weaker dollar - Micron's profits will go up - I don't think prices would automatically go up - unlees of course if they reduced capacity.This price change would be more capacity related than Dollar related.
